An - installer for updated versions of GCC is available at - <http://www.mingw.org/> and should make this package work in connection with - Haskell-Platform. Feedback on compatibility would be appreciated. - - /Testing:/ The following commands can be used to compile and run the test suite: - - > cabal unpack bits-atomic && cd bits-atomic-* # if not yet locally available - > cabal configure -ftest - > cabal build - > cabal test - - /Recent changes/: - - * 0.1.3: Documentation updates, especially on portability.
